Examples

Shows how to omit PictureBullet data from the document when saving.

doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Image bullet points.docx')
# Some word processors, such as Microsoft Word 97, are incompatible with PictureBullet data.
# By setting a flag in the SaveOptions object,
# we can convert all image bullet points to ordinary bullet points while saving.

save_options.save_picture_bullet = False
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'DocSaveOptions.PictureBullets.doc', save_options=save_options)
